Chapter 8

But when Ye Qingyu was eliminated in the assessment, he immediately withdrew his previous offer, and even sneered, leaving behind the words, "Turns out you're just a stinky mongrel, wasting my time"...

"Hehe, people should always look forward. Holding grudges is not a good thing..." Lin Tong smiled faintly, his tone carrying a subtle threat.

"Look at your old man... Get lost!"

Ye Qingyu started cursing directly.

"You... " Lin Tong's face stiffened, feeling humiliated in front of so many people.

Ye Qingyu didn't even glance at him again, turned to the crowd, and bowed, saying, "Everyone, before entering the Bai Lu Academy, I don't want to be involved in other matters. Please bear with me."

This clearly indicated that he would not accept any other force's recruitment for the time being.

After speaking, Ye Qingyu turned and strode toward the fifth assessment venue.

Ye Qingyu had this kind of temperament; he absolutely wouldn't tolerate any sand in his eyes.

Back then, this fat man turned his face faster than turning a page, and later bullied, humiliated, and made things difficult for him multiple times. Now, he wanted Ye Qingyu to work for them again?

Not a chance.

This resolute attitude caused a stir in the crowd.

Lin Tong, the general advisor of the Northern City's Martial Lord Manor, had a pale, plump face that turned green and red with anger, his beard fluttering in the wind.

After so many years, who dared to treat him with such disrespect? He never thought that today he would be slapped in the face by a half-fallen mongrel...

In contrast, Luan Ping of the Qingluo Chamber of Commerce was very happy.

"Quick, follow him and see how Ye Qingyu performs in the other tests."

"This Ye Qingyu, as expected, is a young tiger with courage. He's too straightforward, which means he has offended the Northern City's Martial Lord Manor and the four major martial lords of the east, west, south, and north. They are second only to the city lord, and offending any one of them is not a good thing!"

"Steel is easily broken. Such a personality is not good. Even if he is a genius, if he dies young, he will just be a handful of yellow earth!"

Some people commented and followed him.

Liu Ye, the young man in brocade, was among the crowd, gritting his teeth in anger, about to follow, when something unexpected happened.

A figure darted from behind him, and with a slap, he was hit so hard that stars danced before his eyes, and he spun around twice before stabilizing himself...

Liu Ye's head was muddled, and he was furious, cursing, "Which dog bastard dared to hit me..."

"Still talking back? I'm hitting you, you troublemaker who keeps causing me problems..." A familiar, furious voice came.

Liu Ye was stunned and saw that the person who hit him was Liu Heng, the chief examiner of the Blood Qi test, who was also his clan uncle.

He immediately understood the reason and shrank back.

"Where is he? Where is Ye Qingyu?" Liu Heng asked, both anxious and angry: "What was the result of the third test?"

Liu Ye, covering his face, said the test results and pointed to the distance, "He went to take the fifth test..."

"What? Another first-class, ninth-grade talent score?" Liu Heng's head ached, and his legs trembled.

The better Ye Qingyu's performance, the more trouble he would have later.

Once the academy's upper echelons learned that he had suppressed such a genius, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Oh, I'm really angry. You ungrateful little beast, you keep causing me trouble!"

Liu Heng, in a fit of rage, wished he could take back his actions, and raised his hand to slap Liu Ye a few more times before running off to catch up.

He was planning to persuade Ye Qingyu to return and take the Blood Qi test, even if it meant kneeling and calling him dad.

"I... I..."

Liu Ye's face was swollen like a pig's head, spitting out a mouthful of blood, feeling both resentment and hatred, but helpless.

...

Liu Heng no longer cared about his dignity as a chief examiner, and in the strange gazes of countless people, he ran all the way to the fifth test venue, which was the Bone and Sinew test venue.

But there was no sign of Ye Qingyu here.

Nor were there many other people.

"Where is he? Where is Ye Qingyu?" Liu Heng, in a hurry, grabbed a second-year student responsible for maintaining order and asked.

The student, seeing him in the chief examiner's attire, did not dare to be rude and said, "Are you also chasing after Ye Genius? You're too late. The Bone and Sinew test is already over. Ye Genius effortlessly activated the Bone and Sinew Origin Stone, with golden light shining for a hundred meters, causing a stir. The chief chief examiner of the first year personally determined it to be a first-class, ninth-grade Bone and Sinew..."

"What? Another first-class, ninth-grade?" Liu Heng was almost driven mad.

Heaven, are you playing with me?

The student, not noticing his expression, said excitedly, "Yes, it's said that Ye Junior Brother scored first-class, ninth-grade in every previous test, which is simply astonishing. Our Bai Lu Academy is really going to produce a great genius this time..."

Liu Heng's vision went dark, almost fainting.

What he feared the most had come to pass. The chief chief examiner of the first year had personally appeared?

The Bai Lu Academy was structured around grade departments. Below the dean were four grade departments, each with one chief and two deputies. Below the three chiefs was the chief chief examiner.

Such a person, with a minimum strength of the middle to upper realm of the Spirit Spring stage, was a true authority, far more prestigious than Liu Heng, a miscellaneous chief examiner, and could make him leave the Bai Lu Academy with a single word.

"From your expression, you must be shocked and excited too, right?" The student, a chatterbox, said incessantly, "Our Bai Lu Academy has produced a genius like Ye Qingyu, plus the top ten in the previous test results, I believe we can achieve good results in next year's Ten Academies Glory Battle and can finally hold our heads high!"

Liu Heng, on the verge of tears, turned and continued to chase to the sixth test venue.

"I hope it's not too late to make amends."

He prayed in his heart.

...

The sixth test venue.

The martial arts mental test venue.

Ye Qingyu stood firm.

"I didn't expect you to ignite the Asura Slaughter God Statue!" A middle-aged man with a handsome face, extraordinary aura, and eyes gleaming with excitement, laughed to the sky, "Good, decisive and fearless, this is the true meaning of the Asura God Statue, and also the true meaning of martial arts. Such a mental state is powerful, I like it, hahaha!"

Ye Qingyu stood in the test venue.

In front of him were seven statues, each with a different form, some human, some plants, or fierce beasts, each vivid and lifelike, exuding different auras, overlooking the crowd.

One of the human-shaped statues, grand and magnificent, with six arms holding different divine weapons, exuded a killing aura like a war god. The ten-thousand-foot light had just dissipated, and the terrifying aura gradually hid within the statue. This was the Asura Slaughter God Statue, one of the seven mental statues, and the one Ye Qingyu had just ignited.

The mental test in the Bai Lu Academy's six admission tests was not the most important, not a hard requirement, but rather a way to test the candidate's martial arts heart.

The martial arts heart is also the true heart of a person.

In this world, some people are kind, some are timid, some are cruel, some are bloodthirsty, some are fierce, some are cautious, some are brutal, some are gentle, some are fiery, some are gentle like the wind, some plan before acting, some act on a whim...

Different people have different martial arts hearts.

Different martial arts hearts trigger different mental statues to emit light during the test.

The mental statue Ye Qingyu triggered was the Asura Slaughter Martial God, representing decisiveness, hatred of evil, and clear distinctions between right and wrong, a mental state of extreme ferocity.

Those with such a martial arts heart, once they achieve great martial arts, will be decisive and ruthless, becoming a formidable hero.

However, their excessive killing intent may not be favored by some moralists.

When this result came out, the surrounding crowd immediately began to discuss.

Ye Qingyu's previous results in the meridians, bone and sinew, and enlightenment tests were extraordinary, but the heavy killing intent he displayed now suggested that once he matured, he would become a powerful spear, capable of both harming enemies and himself.

But the middle-aged chief chief examiner seemed to greatly appreciate Ye Qingyu's martial arts heart, praising him repeatedly.

"Hahaha, excellent, very good. I didn't expect that on the last day of the test, our Bai Lu Academy would still gain such a treasure," the chief chief examiner was hard to contain his excitement.

He laughed and said, "You are Ye Qingyu, right? I know about you. It seems the old dean's judgment was correct. You are indeed a genius. Although you have wasted four years, with your talent, catching up is not impossible. Welcome to the Bai Lu Academy."

When these words were spoken, the crowd was in an uproar.

Ye Qingyu finally entered the Bai Lu Academy.

All the disputes and ridicule that began four years ago came to a complete end, dissipating like smoke.

The faces of countless people in the Lu Ming County City would surely be slapped hard by this final result.

"Thank you, Chief Chief Examiner Kong!" Ye Qingyu bowed in gratitude and then shook his head, saying, "But I still have one test left, and I may not be able to join the academy."

"Oh? Is that so? The mental test is already the sixth test. You still have one left?" The first-year chief chief examiner, Kong Kong, frowned slightly, a wave of pressure emanating from him, "What exactly is going on?"

Just as Ye Qingyu was about to speak...

"Miscellaneous chief examiner Liu Heng, reporting to Chief Chief Examiner Kong," the chief examiner of the Blood Qi test, with a goatee, panted as he ran over, hurriedly saluting Kong Kong, then, without regard for anything else, looked at Ye Qingyu with a fawning smile, "Brother Ye, I've been looking for you for a long time. I was just joking before. Come with me to take the Blood Qi test..."

As he spoke, he made eye contact with Ye Qingyu, his face full of flattery, a far cry from his previous arrogance.

Ye Qingyu, however, just sneered and said nothing.

"Are you the chief examiner of the first test venue?" Kong Kong, as the first-year chief chief examiner, with his rich experience, immediately saw through the situation, pointed at Liu Heng, and said firmly, "Explain why Ye Qingyu has not yet taken the Blood Qi test."
